Description
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's ublk subsystem. When the automatic buffer registration feature is active, an invalid buffer address can be processed, causing a command to complete while its associated tag remains active. This can lead to a system hang during resource teardown, allowing a local attacker to cause a Denial of Service (DoS).
